Momentum was in Conor's favor. He won R3 on all 3 judges' scorecards and was well on his way to winning R4 before Khabib caught him with a fluke takedown. Should be an easy rematch for Conor IMO, he has Khabib's timing down pat now. How's that? Am I an honorary Irish now?

People are still paying cash money and devoting their eyeballs to watch Chael limply grind on Rampage for 25 minutes in tyool 2018 because he's entertaining as gently caress despite being some sort of weird failure golem.

Dr. Abysmal posted:It's signed for the event but they've probably been listening to the groaning about how that's not a great headliner so they're still looking for something else, even though they've got the World Superfighter Division Championship fight sitting right there that makes sense, I mean I'll pay for any Val fight but its not exactly a dream match Rigel posted:Conor's whiskey is reportedly terrible. Shocking, I know. also not to defend an r-worded Irish idiot but this article is real dumb and reads like they just wanted to dunk on McGregor his fancy whiskey is just re-blended Bushmills, there's no way it's as vile as all that. its not good, sure, but it's a fuckin 25 dollar whiskey, it's gonna be basic as poo poo and good mostly for mixing

in a perverse way you gotta respect Conor's willingness to get the poo poo kicked out of him by fighters who are clearly better than he is I guess

That's him trying to hype a rematch here's what he posted after the fight quote:“Congrats to Floyd on a well fought match,” wrote McGregor on Instagram. “Very experienced and methodical in his work. I wish him well in retirement. He is a heck of a boxer. His experience, his patience and his endurance won him this fight hands down. I always told him he was not a fighter but a boxer. But sharing the ring with him he is certainly a solid fighter. Strong in the clinch. Great understanding of frames and head position.” The one thing that is consistent about Conor is that he is a gracious loser right up until the point where it becomes better for his pocketbook to start hyping the rematch with Khabib, he just dramatically overestimated a dagestani psycho's willingness to play along with his carnie bullshit or, as better put in the immortal words of the great Irish philosopher joelsmith543: Soothing Vapors fucked around with this message at 19:53 on Oct 11, 2018 |

Seriously it's totally natural for your accent to slip if you live in a foreign country for an extended period you parochial fucks. I had a (relatively mild) accent when I moved to the states and I sound 100% American now the translator thing is loving weird but it's plausible that he was meant for her brazilian fans, not because she suddenly doesn't understand english What's really important is how that rear end look like a birthday cake Intel&Sebastian posted:I'm sure everyone here saw, but I didn't notice that Khabib wasn't letting go after the tap and Herb Dean had to pry his grip apart until we watched the replay of the whole end of the fight like 3 times. Khabib is Extremely Good, yes

mewse posted:I absolutely refuse to watch the fights from last weekend so can someone give me a 1 sentence summary of how bad Artem Lobov was (again, NOT going to watch the fights) artem's own coach posted:"So does Artem deserve to be in the UFC based on his own merits? Should he be cut after another loss? Well firstly, if losses against high level opposition were the only criteria for being cut then you’d be quickly left with just [two] in each weight class,” Kavanagh wrote on Facebook. “Sounds obvious but on every fight card HALF the fighters lose. Cut them all?”
